When we ran a full service chassis fab/turn-key hot rod shop a number of years ago, it was always useful to have threaded things around to weld into the frame for some kind of mount, etc.
Here’s a list of all our threaded things for your reference:
Ford "Godzilla" 7.3L Motor Mount Kit
This Ford "Godzilla" 7.3L motor mount kit is built for strength, versatility, and ease of installation, accommodating frames of various widths, from narrow T-buckets to full-size F100 pickups. The design is intended for easy assembly (in the ready-to-weld option), and provides a strong, professional look. Reinforced with gussets, the mount ensures reliable engine support, while urethane bushings effectively dampen vibrations, enhancing comfort and reducing stress on the mounting structure.
High-Quality Materials and Flexible Fitment
- Main Plates and Gussets: Constructed from a 1/4" main plate with 3/16" gussets, the mount is engineered to secure even the high-power 7.3L engine in various setups.
- Trim-to-Fit Frame Plates: The kit includes 4 trim-to-fit 3/16" frame plates that can be customized to fit your frame dimensions once the engine location is set. Filler plates are provided to create a third side on the frame plates, adding extra support and stability to the mounting structure.
Compatible with Multiple Ford Engines
In addition to the Ford "Godzilla" 7.3L engine, this kit has also been successfully used for the 6.2L Ford Raptor engine, making it a versatile choice for various Ford builds. Whether you’re working on a classic truck or a high-performance setup, this mount kit is adaptable to your needs.
